  Re: Thumbs up for walmart.com customers -- (and KBkids, too)
 
(...) That's exactly what got used in this case. (...) Yep, that's what they told me. Oddly enough it was delivered to a post office in North Reading, even though it was addressed to me in Lowell (several miles away. (...) And that's where the trail (...)

  Re: Hats off Winner to Walmart.com & LS@H - Worst Shipping this Holiday!
 
I've been waiting to vent on this :) My last 2 orders from LS@H have arrived pre-opened! Nothing missing, it's just that Lego did a real shoddy job of taping the box shut. About a month ago when my Statue of Liberty arrived 1 box flap was open, and (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)
 
  Re: Hats off Winner to Walmart.com & LS@H - Worst Shipping this Holiday!
 
(...) Not really a horror story... I ordered a webcam and a USB hub for my son's PC late last week from Staples.com knowing that it probably wouldn't arrive in time. The total came to $149.97, needing something cheap to jump from a $30 coupon to a (...) (24 years ago, 30-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)
 
  Re: Hats off Winner to Walmart.com & LS@H - Worst Shipping this Holiday!
 
Ditto--I had four shipments from Walmart.com. Six actually, because they separated out two paperback books and mailed them each separately for $5! Other than the books: 1. Small Lego tightly crushed by 1 airbag on top of it. 2. Big Lego (7191) (...) (24 years ago, 30-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

I have had bad shipping from all: Fedex, UPS, USPS, etc. but I blame this one on Walmart because their improper shipping methods. Those air packs don't work well if there is not (...)

  Re: Hats off Winner to Walmart.com & LS@H - Worst Shipping this Holiday!
 
(...) I actually received my Walmart packages in good shape. While they were not packaged well, Airborne Express must have handeled them well because I received them all without a dent. Who was the shipper they used to send your sets? If it was UPS (...) (24 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)
 
  Hats off Winner to Walmart.com & LS@H - Worst Shipping this Holiday!
 
To All, After recieving numerous LEGO shipments from various on-line and retail operations for the past couple of months, Walmart.com & LS@H have the two worst packages I have seen in a long time.

  Re: Estimated weight for 600 LEGO bricks for shipping
 
(...) thanks (...) Actually that is it exactly - they wanted me to send $11.00 for shipping even though the auction was "pay actual shipping costs". The guy said that if it was over by much he would refund me the money. I really didn't know how much (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

  Re: Estimated weight for 600 LEGO bricks for shipping
 
(...) Well, an unopened 950 pc box (1857) weighes just an ounce or so short of 3 pounds. But it really depends on what bricks you're talking about. 600 2x6's will weigh more than 600 1x1's. I'd say up to three pounds would be a safe bet. That 950 pc (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)
 
  Estimated weight for 600 LEGO bricks for shipping
 
Hello- I'm closing a deal on eBay and was trying to see if an estimate for shipping was close. The shipper is in Maryland (Columbia), USA and I'm in Washington. To figure the costs, I need an estimated shipping weight. The auction lot was for ~600 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

  Re: US postal rates going up Jan 7, 2001
 
(...) A 1.5 lb package would be $3.95. If you use an envelope that says "FLAT RATE", you will pay $3.95 if your package weighs 5 ounces or 5 lbs. Anything that fits in the envelope, regardless of weight, is $3.95. That's why they don't say over 1lb. (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

  A.E.T.Checks as payment for Lego / mailing ...
 
Hi all ! What if ... Someone sends American Expres Travellers Checks as payment (for Lego :-)) ) to you and those don't show up ? I guess there is no way someone else (except you - the seller) could cash those, so is there a chance for a buyer to (...) (24 years ago, 4-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

  Re: eToys shipping rates - Note the Maximum!

Thanks for pointing this out: I managed to overlook this little tidbit, and made at least one decision to pass on buying a bunch of small sets on closeout because the extra buck apiece made them a lot less attractive.

  Re: eToys shipping rates - not necessarily yuck!
